Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a process for the catalytic hydrodealkylation of aromatic hydrocarbons.
  • the present invention relates to a process for the catalytic hydrodealkylation of hydrocarbon compositions comprising Cs-Ci 3 alkylaromatic compounds mixed with C 4 -C 10 aliphatic and cycloaliphatic products. Even more specifically, the present invention relates to a process according to which the catalytic hydrodealkylation operates on alkylaromatic compounds present as such in the initial feedstock and on those produced under the same reaction conditions by the aromatization of aliphatic and cycloaliphatic compounds mixed together.
  • concomitant transalkylation, isom- erization, disproportioning and condensation by-reactions are quantitatively suppressed.
  • the process describes a hydrodealkylation of al- kylaromatic compounds which, on the basis of the reaction conditions and results shown, cannot be of a general type, but specific for an exclusive de-ethylation as the only alkylaromatic product which is de-alkylated is ethylbenzene. It is also known that, when a catalytic hydrodealkylation reaction takes place, the hydrogenated alkyl radical (methane, ethane, propane, etc.) which was subjected to catalytic dealkylation from the aromatic ring, must be found in gas phase.
  • the hydrogenated alkyl radical methane, ethane, propane, etc.
  • US patent 4,899,011 describes a process in which, once again, the evident objective is to isomerize a hydrocarbon feedstock containing paraffins and a Ce aromatic blend of ethylbenzene and xylenes, as the content of p-xylene is lower than that at equilibrium.
  • the process includes the treatment of said feedstock under conventional reaction conditions, on a catalytic system with two fixed beds, in succession, each of them consisting of a zeolite catalyst of the ZSM-5 type, the first of which has a minimum crystal dimension of 1 ⁇ m whereas the second has dimensions lower than 1 ⁇ m.
  • the zeolite can be modified by means of a noble metal selected from platinum, palladium or rhodium, or couples of noble metals such as platinum-rhenium, platinum- palladium or platinum-iridium, or terns of the platinum- iridium-rhenium type; or modified by means of the above noble metals and non-noble metals such as cobalt, nickel, vanadium, tungsten, titanium and molybdenum, to form couples of the platinum-nickel or platinum-tungsten type, or terns such as platinum-nickel-tungsten, even if the metal pre- ferred for the impregnation of the ZSM-5 is platinum.
  • a noble metal selected from platinum, palladium or rhodium, or couples of noble metals such as platinum-rhenium, platinum- palladium or platinum-iridium, or terns of the platinum- iridium-rhenium type; or modified by means of the above noble metals and non-noble metals such as
  • This patent includes the processing of said feedstock at a considerably lower pressure (lower than 14 bar) than those generally necessary in hydrodealkylation processes and with a molar ratio between hydrogen and ethylbenzene (1.2 mol/mol) even lower than those mentioned, for example, in US patents 4,482,773 (2- 2.2) and 4,899,011 (2.9-3), already much lower with respect to those which have to be used in order to obtain an effective hydrodealkylation, in the presence of a zeolite cata- lyst of the ZSM-5 type modified with platinum and magnesium.
  • the catalytic hydrodealkylation of ethylbenzene proves to have a low efficiency and selectivity, under the reaction conditions and with the catalytic system used, consisting of a zeolite of the ZSM-5 type, in acidic form or exchanged with alkaline metals and treated with metals of group VIII, in particular platinum.
  • the low efficiency is demonstrated by the low production of benzene and toluene, and by the significant amount of non-converted ethyl- benzene, whereas the poor selectivity is due to the intervention of transalkylation or disproportioning side- reactions, which lead to the formation of higher Cg + alky- laromatic products.
  • US patent 5,689,027 claims a two-step process, in the first of which the operating conditions should be suitable for the hydrodealkylation of the ethylbenzene present in the feeding, whereas in the second step other operating conditions should promote the isomerization to p-xylene of the blend of isomers present in the feedstock which are not at equilibrium.
  • the catalytic system used in both steps is a ZSM-5 zeolite exchanged with cations of alkaline or alka- line-earth metals, or treated with silanizing agents and subsequently activated with a metal selected from those belonging to group VIII, IB, IIIA and VA, particularly platinum, possibly coupled with tin.
  • Patent WO 2005/071045 describes a process for the catalytic hydrodealkylation of hydrocarbon compositions comprising Ce-Ci 3 aromatic compounds, possibly mixed with C 4 -C 10 aliphatic or cycloaliphatic products, using a catalyst of the ZSM-5 type modified with metals selected among molybdenum, zinc, nickel, cobalt and palladium or couples of molybdenum-zinc and molybdenum-cobalt.
  • the results claimed show an efficient dealkylation with good yields to benzene and toluene.
  • the dealkylation of xylenes and C 9 -C 9+ initial aromatic compounds is, in any case, limited.
  • the Applicant has now surprisingly found a process which allows the hydrodealkylation of C 8 -Ci 3 alkylaromatic hydrocarbons and, unexpectedly, also the contemporaneous catalytic hydrodealkylation of the alkylaromatic compounds obtained from the aromatization, under the same process conditions, as those initially present in a blend as C4-C10 aliphatic and cycloaliphatic hydrocarbons, to benzene, toluene and ethane (BTE) .
  • the overall hydrodealkylation reaction takes place without concomitant transalkylation, dispropor- tioning, isomerization and condensation reactions which al- ways characterize the processes of the known art, by selecting suitable operative conditions and formulation of the zeolite catalyst.
  • An object of the present invention therefore relates to a process capable of operating a selective catalytic hy- drodealkylation of hydrocarbon compositions comprising both a Cs-Ci 3 alkylaromatic fraction and a C 4 -Ci 0 aliphatic fraction which is contemporaneously aromatized under the process conditions.
  • the process object of the present invention therefore allows the catalytic hydrodealkylation to be obtained of the aromatic C 8 -CiO fraction as well as the aroma- tization of the C 4 -Ci O aliphatic and cycloaliphatic fraction present, with subsequent instantaneous hydrodealkylation.
  • said aromatic and aliphatic-cycloaliphatic hydrocarbon compositions are treated in continuous and in the presence of hy- drogen, using a catalyst consisting of a ZSM-5 zeolite car- rier, having a Si/Al molar ratio ranging from 5 to 100, modified by the couple of metals molybdenum and platinum (Pt-Mo) , at temperatures ranging from 400 to 650 0 C, preferably from 450 to 58O 0 C, at pressures ranging from 1 to 5 MPa (between 10 and 50 bar), preferably from 2.8 to 3.6 MPa (between 28 and 36 bar) , and with H 2 Zfeedstock molar ratios ranging from 1 to 10, preferably from 2 to 7, more preferably between 3.8 and 5.2.

  • This feedstock can come from effluents of reforming units, for example, or from units which effect pyrolysis processes, such as steam cracking, and can contain a blend of aliphatic and cycloaliphatic C 4 -Ci 0 products which, under the process conditions, are aromatized and then hydrodealkylated.
  • the lat- ter can be butanes, pentanes, hexanes, heptanes, etc.. and the corresponding cyclic and cycloalkylic derivatives (naphthenes) .
  • the feedstock being fed can also contain het- eroatomic organic compounds, wherein the heteroatoms can be nitrogen, oxygen and sulphur, in the typical quantities generally present in feedstocks coming from reforming units or pyrolysis processes.
  • the hydrocarbon feedstock used in the present process can, if required, be subjected to separation treatment, for example distillation or extraction, to concentrate the products to be subjected to subsequent hydrodealkylation. Furthermore, if required, the feedstock can be subjected to a previous hydrogenation to eliminate the unsaturations present in the aliphatic compounds and on the same alkyl substituents of the aromatic rings.
  • hydrodealky- lation reaction conditions object of the invention in particular as a result of the amount of hydrogen used and the activity shown by the catalyst, it is possible to also contemporaneously obtain the direct hydrogenation of the unsaturated compounds present in the aro- matic feedstock to be hydrodealkylated, such as butenes, pentenes, alkylpentenes, cyclopentenes, alkylcyclopentenes, hexenes, alkylhexenes, cyclohexenes, alkylcyclohexenes, and so on, and other unsaturated naphthene compounds.
  • the unsaturated compounds present in the aro- matic feedstock such as butenes, pentenes, alkylpentenes, cyclopentenes, alkylcyclopentenes, hexenes, alkylhexenes, cyclohexenes, alkylcyclohexenes, and so on, and other unsaturated naphthene compounds.
  • Hydrogen itself allows the re- moval of sulphur, nitrogen or oxygen from the compounds typically present in hydrocarbon feedstocks, as these het- eroatoms are quantitatively removed (sulphur, for example, as H 2 S) .
  • the hydrodealkyla- tion catalyst consisting on a ZSM-5 zeolite modified with the couples Pt-Mo of the metals platinum and molybdenum (Pt x -MO y ), surprisingly showed the highest selectivity to benzene, toluene and ethane (BTE) , with a quantitative reduction of xylenes and, above all, aromatic Cg-Cg + compounds (among Cg + products, particularly the heavy ones, such as naphthalenes and methylnaphthalenes) .
  • Said catalyst moreover, allowed the underproduction of propane to be minimized, with the consequent simplification of the distillation/separation process from other valuable gases produced by the reaction, methane but, above all, ethane.
  • the composition of the zeolite carrier must also have been of considerable help in obtaining such a good results.
  • the lack of side-reactions, such as isomerization, transalkylation, condensation and disproportioning in the process object of the invention, is due to the reduction of the undesired acidity of the zeolite (ZSM-5) obtained with the amounts of aluminium found, particularly favourable with respect to silicon.
